I’m not included in BIG 3 because I am a giant - Eddy Kenzo

"They can't count me under Big Three. I'm no longer BIG," said Kenzo when he was asked why he is never included among the so-called Big Three.

"I'm a giant.

"I'm not just big, I'm an extra large guy. I'm a giant. I'm beyond big.

"I don't want to undermine them [in reference to the Big Three], because I respect them. I also don't look into those things a lot.

"I'm here to contribute to the growth of my country. Because at the end of the day, I will die, and I will only leave in memories, so I care so much about that."

The Big Three debate has attracted wide-ranging opinions from different players in the music industry.

While Chameleone and Cool insist that the title is well-deserved, their counterpart Wine believes it's no longer relevant.

Cindy, the president of the Uganda Musicians Association, has said: “They are still standing on their legacies... there are bigger artistes or those who are at the same level... But they are still respected because of what they did for the industry; their legacies.

"That's why they are the big three."

D.J. Nimrod said: "The Ugandan music industry is no longer based on what u guys call the big 3, eyo twavayo Daaaa [we moved on long time ago], kati ba [now the likes of] @YkeeBenda @SpiceDianaUg @AlienSkinUg bebaliko [are in the lead].

Nimrod noted that some young artistes are scooping more brand endorsements than seasoned musicians.
